Excerpt from Sunset Before Noon: A Poem Addressed to the Friends of Youth

There are those who believe that true social reform can never be achieved but by razing the foundations of society, or washing them away by blood.

In the reign of terror in France we had a good test of this theory. Peaceful reform is the only kind that has ever blessed the world.

The author of this little book will be happy to co-operate with all parties that believe in levelling up, and not levelling down human society. This I believe is the true spirit of reform; true Democracy, true Republicanism, true Socialism, true Christianity.
